Start of the firework season

If you've followed this site for a while you'll have seen pictures of the large fireworks displays that take place annually in Ojiya and Nagaoka in August.

Tomorrow sees the first of the big local displays, one I've not visited previously but will be going to tomorrow evening, in the seaside town of Kashiwazaki, about 20km away from Ojiya.

The video below is one of many that appear on Youtube of the Kashiwazaki fireworks.
